THE MAKEUP TAG

Today I am going to do something different. I was tagged to do this makeup tag by Marta from This Is Simply Me, and because I think you can learn a lot about a person from this kind of tags I decided to do it.

Do you remember your first makeup item?

I think we all started with a mascara...or a lip gloss? My first mascara was a Maybelline mascara with the pink tube and green cap. I stole one from my mum when I was 11 years old. I remember swatching it on my hand first, don't ask me why, and after playing with it for some time (and totally wasting a half of the mascara) I finally had the guts to put it on my eyelashes.

Describe your perfect mascara. Have you found ''The One''?

I test out a lot of mascaras and I still don't have the favourite one. I usually mix two or even three mascaras at once and that gives me the best result.

What coverage do you like in a foundation?

I like a very light coverage because my skin is looking awesome by itself. I just have to cover up some redness around my nose. That is why I use BB creams.

What's your favourite high-end brand?

Huh, this is a hard one. I am slowly building up my collection of high-end stuff because, you know, they are expensive. Right now I own the most Urban Decay stuff, but this will soon change.

What cosmetics brand are you desperate to try but haven't yet?

Anastasia Beverly Hills, I have to have my hands on it...soon!

Favourite drugstore brand?

I love Sleek and Catrice, they have the best quality products for the price.

Do you wear fake eyelashes?

I wear them when I take photos of my makeup for blog posts. I think my lashes "pop" enough for me to wear just mascara. Oh, and I use them for Halloween.

Is there any makeup you can't leave the house wearing?

Even if I don't do anything at all to my face, I always take care of my eyebrows! I think they make the biggest difference.

What is your most cherished beauty product?

Hmmm, I cherish all of my beauty products because I have a minor OCD where all the things I own must be clean and nicely put away, haha. But right now I would say my Carli Bybel palette.

How often do you buy makeup products?

Wow, when do I buy it, or when I don't buy it? I can't leave any store without buying something. I have a problem. Help me.

Do you have a monthly beauty budget or spend freely?

I try to stick at 100€ a month for beauty products, that is makeup and skincare. But that is the maximum amount and I do my best not to reach it. It is all for the name of science, you know?

I don't. I know I should at least look at them but it just takes away the fun from everything.

Which beauty product do you buy the most of?

Eyeshadows. I have sooo much different colours but always buy more. Who needs 500 shades of brown? Well I guess I do.

Is there a brand that you really don't like?

We have a brand called Alverde here in Slovenia and I must sadly admit I really don't like any of their products.

Do you avoid certain ingredients in the cosmetics like parabens or sulphates?I try to stick to natural cosmetics. Do you have a favourite place to shop for makeup?I do most of my shopping online, because there is not a lot of choices where I live. Thank God that lately I have noticed a lot of new online shops with makeup opening up. Do you like trying new skincare products or sticking to a routine?My skin is really good to me that is why I like trying a lot of new stuff. I don't have problems with breakouts and stuff for using the "wrong" skincare, which gives me a lot of space to investigate. What's your favourite Bath & Body brand?I mostly buy Lush products. If you could only buy from one brand, who would you pick?Well, that is just not an option for me. I am too obsessed with makeup to use only one brand?! What do you love about makeup?I find putting on makeup relaxing. I don't know why, but I just do. It is a part of my daily ritual and I enjoy it so so so much. People ask me all the time: "How can you do this every day?" and my answer is always the same: "It makes me happy!" I know all of you makeup lovers understand what I am trying to say. This are all the questions and I tag all of the Slovenian beauty girls to do it!
